Our Mission

Honours Review is an independent, peer-reviewed journal from the University of Groningen. Published semi-annually (June/December), it combines high quality articles with an original design by the Minerva Art Academy Groningen.

Honours Review aims to foster academic and personal growth through the writing and design process and provides a platform for the intellectual and creative generation of tomorrow.

The journal has started in 2012 as an initiative of Honours College students and has been growing ever since. In December 2017, we celebrated our 10th issue. Every issue contains a unique mixture of scientific articles, an interview with remarkable personae, a book review, and an occasional creative writing piece, written by students. The past issues include contributions on terrorism, politics and attraction and many more and have featured interviews with three Nobel Laureates: Prof. Brian Schmidt (Physics 2011), Prof. Jean-Marie Lehn (Chemistry 1987) and Prof. Ben L. Feringa (Chemistry 2016).
